Monkey Hear, Monkey Do! A Hear! Think! Do! Auditory Charades Lesson

Here's the latest in the Hear! Think! Do! Series. In Monkey Hear, Monkey Do!, Students get the chance to practice their listening skills in a fun and challenging way. Kids must listen carefully as a pose is described for them in detail. Children must then demonstrate their auditory abilities as they pose their own body exactly as described. Large, full-page cards of each pose give students a chance to self-check and self-correct, if necessary. Delightful and simple stick figures make that self-check quick and easy...and your assessment of a child's understanding and skill-level just as straightforward.

Always a big hit, Monkey Hear, Monkey Do! also teaches and reviews body parts and positional words, promotes spatial awareness and visual discrimination, and develops gross motor skills (large-limb movement, core strength, and balance).

Perfect for preschoolers and kindergartners, you’ll find even older kids will love to give Monkey Hear, Monkey Do! a go! Your purchase includes 32 full-page cards, plus a complete lesson plan to teach you how to introduce the game to your students. For your convenience, cards are color-coded by level of challenge: green poses are the easiest, yellow ones are a bit more difficult, and red poses are for those who are ready for the highest level of challenge.

Easy for a quick Physical Education lesson or easily adapted for a Physical Therapy session, Monkey Hear, Monkey Do! is sure to become a favorite in your classroom! Suggestions are included for extending the activity with students.
